Welcome to PubForge!
Pubforge.org is a resource being built by a group of folks from public broadcasting organizations interested in sharing and applying (mostly) open-source solutions to common problems faced in the transition from traditional to new media.
A working group met at the recent Beyond Broadcast meeting in Boston and chose this domain to be the home for a discussion about common problems, for shared wisdom on best practices, for shared code and recommendations, and to be a repository for useful tools and applications.
In short, PubForge seeks to:
- Be an online resource for public media technologists to share solutions.
- Reach open source developers who are interested in contributing their talents to public broadcasting. "donate code not dollars"
- Identify collaborative projects among public broadcasters.
Main Topics:
Take the PubForge Open Source Collaboration Survey a survey of public media technologists on needs and capablilities for collaborative creation of open source tools
Solutions in search of problems - existing or evolving applications.
Problems in search of solutions - need help? This is the place to ask!
Togetherness - looking to collaborate on a project?
Donate Code, not Dollars - Looking for a developer? Offering a bounty? Developers: looking to work on public broadcasting applications, systems, etc? This is the place.
Expertise Directory - who, where, what - originally started at the 2007 IMA conference
